The 76-year-old manager departed Loftus Road in 2012, with Taarabt remaining a QPR player for another three years after that. However, he didn’t reach the heights that he had managed previously, being sent out on loan twice to Fulham and AC Milan. He then left permanently in 2015 to Benfica, where he spent seven years and reignited his career, playing over 120 games. Taarabt has since had spells at Genoa, Dubai-based team Al-Nasr, and now he still plays professionally for Sharjah in the UAE.
